Those aren't tire sizes, they're ratios. I would go with whichever one fits myself.

I thought yours was an intercooled kit, does the heat cause a huge loss in performance even with an intercooler?

Actually it has been running pretty well. The heat hasn't messed with my car. Running great. I don't think it gets as hot here as it does in the valley.

Ever since i got my turbo, my car seems to backfire a bit more. I have stock exhaust. Would getting a bigger exhaust with bigger piping decrase the backfire?

Exhaust might help, allow the gases to flow easier and such.
